Hi there. I bought some cherry tomatoes the other day called Sweet Pops. But I can't find the seeds anywhere. I'm fermenting some now but not sure if it's a hybrid or not. When I did a search, I found Power Pops with Reimer seeds. Anyone familiar with these tomatoes?

If you bought cherry tomatoes in a store, probably 99% that they are hybrid. And, in this case, 99% chance that its name is NOT Sweetpops. It's a brand name of pre-packaged cherry tomatoes and no indication that it's a specific variety.

Did the package come with a barcode? If so, do a search for the number. Then contact the manufacturer, and find out if it's patented, or a hybrid, or what. They might not tell you, though, but they'll likely respond. They're probably more likely to tell you if it's a hybrid than whether it's patented, however. Do these look like the packaging? https://www.redsunfarms.com/our-vegetab ... s/tomatoes
